[Honestly, just the sheer look of attentiveness has Ochako giggling a bit, reminded so much of her friend when he's really in the zone about something he likes (Heroes, it's always Heroes). But, at the mention of cups, Ochako actually perks up and she waves her hand with a shake of her head.]
Actually, in my region of my world, we don't use cups for measurement - I think that's just an America thing, ehehe. Japan uses the metric system, so for liquids, it's milliliters, and for solids, it's grams!!
[And thank fucking god Nippon was literally an older version of Japan, so Ochako didn't have to learn anything different. For real, America is so...weird about their stuff. Feets, foots, inches...miles. Pounds. Cups and bowls and whatever the fuck else. Weird. And good lord, Fahrenheit just makes zero sense at all.]
Well, most of the time we put cooked rice in bowls if we eat it plain... But if it's paired with curry or something like that...we use a large plate. Omurice and fried rice are served on plates most of the time, since they're kind of, um...I guess main dishes or entrees, and plain white rice is kind of like a side a lot of the time.
as an american, i will always take every opportunity to roast america's metric system
